“YOMOTSUHEGURI ARMS, MEI KAI YOMI YOMI YOMI!” The latest Premium Bandai release happens to be one of the most sinister items from Kamen Rider Gaim, one that could pretty much kill its user from overuse. That’s right, this is the video for the Yomotsuheguri Lock Seed! With the cosmetic appearance of a gold and red Budou Lock Seed, this new release contains completely different sounds.

Making its first appearance in Episode 42 of the series, this mysterious gold and red Lock Seed was promised to give its user enough power to crush Kamen Rider Gaim. Even though they were told that the risk of using it for too long could lead to it draining their life force, the user still decided to use it, enabling them to take on the form of Ryugen-Yomi Yomotsuheguri Arms. With the in-show ability to summon the weapons of the Overlords, it served to be a counterpart to Gaim’s own Kiwami Arms.

The Lock Seed itself features the standard Squash, Au Lait and Sparking finisher sounds, but also features the phrases spoken by its user! This Lock Seed also comes with the Ryugen-Yomi Rider Indicator faceplate that you can attach to your Sengoku Driver! The set itself was released just recently as a Premium Bandai item, for the price of 2160 yen.

We finally have our first look at the latest Premium release in Kamen Rider Gaim’s Arms Change line! ACPB07 Kamen Rider Duke Dragon Energy Arms was just teased on the Premium Bandai website and now not only do we have this initial image, but also release details!

As we can see the original AC Duke’s been slightly remolded to reflect this form as it appears in Drive X Gaim Movie War Full Throttle. The actual Dragon Fruit Energy Arms bears some engineering resemblance to the original Lemon Energy Arms. Duke Dragon Energy Arms will retail for 4320 yen, pre-orders will be open from December 24th (Christmas Eve) through March 3rd 2015 with a release mostly likely in April or May.

It’s only appropriate that after a day of new reveals and in hand images for upcoming Kikaider releases, that TokuNation brings you a gallery of the latest release in the line, S.H. Figuarts Side Machine! 

Side Machine is the personal ride of the original Kikaider himself. An outstanding bike with a side car, Side Machine was way ahead of it’s time for rocking vehicle designs in tokusatsu during the 70’s. Seeing as it’s based on the real world Kawasaki GT 500 Mach III bike, Side Machine happens to include a set of officially licensed Kawasaki decals to accessorize it! This is just an added bonus for a vehicle that sets itself apart by leaps and bounds from most S.H. Figuarts vehicles. Seriously this is one of the nicest bikes in the entire line, gorgeous details, crisp paint, and did I mention those decals?! But don’t just take my word for it, check out 30 images of this awesome ride after the jump.

Also be sure to leave a comment in this thread as well. Posting in the S.H. Figuarts Side Machine Gallery thread will automatically enter you for a chance to win one of our Toku Toy Box Giveaway Prize Packs! Specifically you’ll be entered in for our Monolithic Monsters Prize Pack with this one. For full details on entry & Prize Pack breakdowns for Toku Toy Box follow this link. And Best of luck to all! We’ll have another gallery up for entries later this week!

Revealed only earlier today, Bandai has just updated us with official images, release details, and pre-orders for S.H. Figuarts Gil Hakaider!

As we mentioned earlier today, Gil Hakaider is the form that Professor Gil (the leader of the DARK & SHADOW organizations) assumed in Kikaider 01. His brain was implanted by a group of scientists into the lifeless Hakaider’s body. This version of the figure differentiates itself from the initial Hakaider with some slight paint app differences, and the addition of his cloak & Gil Whistle staff! The Hakaider Shot from the previous release is also still included along with the replacement shin/holster for it.

S.H. Figuarts Gil Hakaider will be released as a Tamashii Web Exclusive in May 2015 for 5184 yen.

Bandai has just updated with official images, pre-orders, and release info for the upcoming Ultra-Act Yullian! Yulian is the childhood friend and ally of Ultraman 80. A welcome female addition to the line, Yullian brings some much needed diversity. While Yullian comes with several sets of hands for herself, she also includes 2 new effect parts for Ultraman 80!

Ultra-Act Yullian will be released in May 2015 as a Tamashii Web Exclusive for 4536 yen.

Well ahead of it’s April release via the Tamashii Web Shop we’ve gotten an early in hand look at S.H. Figuarts Kikaider 01! As usual this type of early look is courtesy of Tamashii Nations themselves and it gives us a glimpse at what the finalized figure will look like, and the accessories it will have.

However, these images also drop a huge bomb. The reveal of S.H. Figuarts Gil Hakaider! Fans of the Kikaider franchise will undoubtedly recognize the emperor of the DARK & SHADOW terrorist organizations as he appeared in Kikaider 01. Gil comes with what every evil emperor needs, a flowing cape and his trademark staff! No release details are known for Gil Hakaider yet but stay tuned as we find out more about this surprise reveal!

Good news for fans of Gaim and Arms Change collectors!

This image is a teaser for ACPB07- Kamen Rider Duke Dragonfruit Energy Arms! This new form appears on the big screen in Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Drive & Gaim: Movie War Full Throttle, but according to the teaser, we won’t see him in toy form until December 24.
